The Phantasm Sphere Collection on Blu-Ray
Well Go USA released a limited-edition collection of the classic Phantasm to Blu-ray on July 13, 2021. This edition includes a scale-replica of the Phantasm sphere. This sphere was sized to the exact measurements of a screen-used prop in Don Coscarelli’s personal collection.
The Phantasm Sphere Collection also debuts a new 4k scan from the original camera negative of PHANTASM II. For the first time ever, this new transfer of Don Coscarelli’s director’s cut includes the never-before-seen X-rated sphere/gore sequence banned by the MPAA at the time of it’s theatrical release. Coscarelli supervised and approved this new transfer. Experience PHANTASM II like never before.
